Massive tone. Small footprint.

The CL-3E is a cutting-edge ¾ size travel acoustic guitar loaded with all the features guitarists have come to expect from Traveler.

"I use my Traveler Guitar on the road with the Zac Brown Band as a practive instrument. I've used it in vocal warm-ups for several years now. It's very reliable, it always sounds good."

- John Driskell Hopkins

Our head-turning, ¾ size acoustic/electric.

Why it is so great to play

Made with mahogany back and sides and a solid spruce top, the CL-3E also has a lower cutaway and upper beveled top to allow for maximum comfort and playability.

Beautiful appointments

The maple inlay on the headstock and fretboard make this one good looking guitar. With all wood binding this guitar oozes sophistication. The CL-3E may be small in stature, but there’s nothing small about its volume, tone, and advanced features.

Take your playing experience to the next level with the built-in Shadow Nanoflex pickup, which is paired with a custom Shadow preamp, on-board chromatic tuner, and Shadow’s renowned headphone amp technology.
